I met today a computer crash and our maintenance officer had to reinstall some components of the OS (MS Windows XP Pro) as well as the Internet browser (among other things). Now, I cannot install packages from a distant repository: > utils:::menuInstallPkgs() Error in .readRDS(pfile) : unknown input format > traceback() 5: .readRDS(pfile) 4: .packages(all.available = TRUE) 3:

thanks a lot Renaud. but i was interested in Finney's fiducial confidence intervals of LD50 so to obtain comparable results with SPSS. But your reply leads me to the next question: does anybody know what is the best method (asymptotic, bootstrap etc.) for calculating confidence intervals of LD50? i could "get rid" of Finney's fiducial confidence intervals but

Dear all, I have computed a digital terrain model from a set of points (x, y, z) using the function interp() in package akima. I want to predict flooded surfaces given target values of z. I can display the flooded surfaces with contour() or image(), but I don't know how to get the polygons delimiting the surfaces. Did anyone write a function for this purpose ? Best regards, Renaud --

Dear all, I'd like to draw a color key beside a graph drawn with xyplot (lattice library). I am aware of the draw.colorkey function (grid library) but don't know how to handle it. Any hint would be appreciated. Renaud -- Dr Renaud Lancelot, v?t?rinaire CIRAD, D?partement Elevage et M?decine V?t?rinaire (CIRAD-Emvt) Programme Productions Animales

Dear R-Helpers, Is there a way to draw shaded (filled) polygons in panel graphs produced by xyplot ? I made different trials (see below) with polygon() and grid.polygon() but polygons are not drawn (probably for the same reason that prevents the use of lines, points, etc. in xyplot panels).

Dear all, 1. How can I compute the intersecting area between 2 polygons ? 2. I have polygons with coordinates in decimal degrees (i.e. 13 deg 30 min = 13.5 decimal degrees). I want to compute their area and get the results in square meters or square kiometers. Can anyone give me a conversion coefficient or a pointer where I can find this information (sorry for this off topic question) ? Thanks

I wonder why the following code does not produce filled points in the key, as I would have expected: > library(lattice) > x <- 1:10 > y <- rnorm(10) > xyplot(y ~ x, pch = 21, col = "black", fill = "grey", + key = list(space = "top", + text = list("data"), + points = list(pch = 21, col =

Full_Name: Renaud Lancelot Version: Version 2.3.0 (2006-04-24) OS: MS Windows XP Pro SP2 Submission from: (NULL) (82.239.219.108) I think there is a bug in predict.lme, when a polynomial generated by poly() is used as an explanatory variable, and a new data.frame is used for predictions. I guess this is related to * not * using, for predictions, the coefs used in constructing the orthogonal
